International Trailer For 'RESIDENT EVIL: WELCOME TO RACOON CITY' Adds More Footage!
Yesterday the full U.S. Trailer for Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City was released and fans went ape-shit over it, for good reason! It had tons of nods to the video game and the trailer itself was done with an action feel to it.
Today, the international trailer has dropped and it adds more footage to get you hyped for the flick, as well as removing the 90s tune “What’s Up” by the 4 Non Blondes, which we think was a weak song choice for the U.S. trailer. The removal really makes this trailer more Horror based in our opinion.
Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down, The Strangers: Pray At Night), directed the flick and it is slated for a November 24th release in theaters from Sony Pictures.
Here’s the full official synopsis for the new movie…
“Returning to the terrifying roots of the massively popular franchise, fan and filmmaker Johannes Roberts brings the games of the billion dollar franchise and the most successful video game adaptation in history to life for a whole new generation of fans.”
“Once the booming home of pharmaceutical giant Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City is now a dying Midwestern town. The company’s exodus left the city a wasteland…with great evil brewing below the surface. When that evil is unleashed, the townspeople are forever…changed…and a small group of survivors must work together to uncover the truth behind Umbrella and make it through the night.”
The cast includes Kaya Scodelario (Crawl) as Claire Redfield alongside Hannah John-Kamen (Ant-Man and the Wasp) as Jill Valentine, Robbie Amell (Upload) as Chris Redfield, Tom Hopper (The Umbrella Academy) as Albert Wesker, Avan Jogia (Zombieland: Double Tap) as Leon S. Kennedy, and Neal McDonough (Yellowstone) as William Birkin.
Additionally, Donal Logue (Silent Night, “Gotham”) is playing Chief Irons in the “origin story adaptation” of the games that’s set in Raccoon City in 1998.
